4/28 - This is our last day before starting the long drive home. We drove up to Aztec NM and stopped in at Aztec Ruins, then tried to find Octopus Arch (and failed) but then found Cox Canyon Arch. Well, Vaughan, Jim, and Jill found the arch. It was quit a climb to get to the first point where you could see it in the distance. Vaughan went up first with Jim to where they could see the arch in the distance. Jim came back to help Jill up the cliff. Jill came back down while Vaughan continued on to get up close and personal with the arch. Jazzy & I never made the attempt.
Here is their first view of the arch -
But here is the first climb to get up to that view.
Here is Vaughan on the second climb -
and finally a closeup of the arch.
Sometimes it is harder to come down these cliffs than to go up.
A final picture of our crew (minus Vaughan who is still up on a cliff) on our final hike.
It's been a blast!
